The new Small Biz Matters program is all about People, Policy, Purpose. It is conversational and chatty and dedicated to empowering small businesses and their advisors to engage with policy and advocacy. Why? Because what Government does very much Matters to all Small Biz. Good and bad. A labour of love, in 2014 Alexi Boyd started broadcasting to give back to the local small business community. She knew information and support was lacking. Now with over 220 podcasts, the show is sought by PR Agencies and Government departments for its rich, informative content. Media Partners include universities, the Australian Tax Office, ASBFEO, COSBOA and international fintechs. Sponsored by the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman’s office, each week we sit down with experts, advocates, business leaders, policy makers and politicians to dive into specific areas of government policy that affects your business and clients. We’ll give you a heads up on what’s coming down the policy pipeline, find out who’s fighting in your corner and empower you with ways you can influence those decisions which affect your business every single day. The program is broadcast weekly on Tuesdays live on local community radio Triple H 100.1FM, through the Community Broadcasting network, and wherever you get your favourite podcasts.

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.
with Alexi Boyd, broadcaster, advocate and small business owner.
Date: 31 March 2020
So much stimulation, but so much confusion.
Despite most of the major government agencies (and many great accounting & bookkeeping practices) publishing really clear summaries there is still a lot of unknowns. What is available? Which of the options applies to me, and how and importantly WHEN can I access it?
There’s lots of treats on offer from the Lazy Susan of Government Support so how does a small business owner make sense of it all?
Who better to take us carefully and sensibly through this maze than Kylie Parker, Accountant & Director at Lotus Accountants | Author of Planning Plan B | Xero Alumni | Co-Founder AccounTEK Global AND internationally sought after speaker on all things accounting.
Welcome to the show Kylie.
Topics we’ll be covering:
- We’re onto round three of stimulus package so there’s a lot of misunderstandings as we all scramble to understand what the latest version means to us as small businesses. Can you take us through the latest stimulus package which was just released?
- Obviously the latest package is just an addition, an enhancement of the other former policies. As well as what has been offered lately, what else is available:
- Employers
- Those employing apprentices
- Sole traders
- What about Trusts?
- How will the business receive these funds and when?
- What should businesses and accountants & bookkeepers be wary of. Obviously safeguards are in place to ensure no one is taking advantage. What might businesses think they can get away with and how is the ATO going to catch you out?
- Now obviously extending the life of ANY loan has consequences. What should businesses be aware of before they request deferring a loan by 6 months?
